Looks like you need to google

This looks like the offending article -
"The second type of security helps protect you from those who may try to
steal your wireless data from the air. Your wireless gateway comes with
Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP) security turned on; out of the box. By
enabling Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP) encryption on all of your wireless
cards and on the wireless Gateway, this data is encoded. So, if someone is
near your wireless signal, they will be unable to read your data unless you
provided them with your WEP key or Passphrase. You'll receive a reference
guide in your Gateway kit providing instruction on how to enable WEP and
better secure your wireless home network. "

I've cross posted this to alt.cell-phone.tech in the hope that someone there
can help you out
